Born on 5/14/1942 in Philadelphia, PA to Walter and Sara Tyrrell. Ms. Tyrrell entered the convent after graduating from Cardinal Dougherty High School. She was a Grey Nun of the Sacred Heart for over 20 years. Kathleen devoted her life to teaching children, and retired from Ocean City Primary School after many years of teaching third grade.

Her Irish heritage brought her great joy, and she visited her beloved relatives in County Mayo, Ireland on many memorable trips. Friends and family, near and far, meant the world to Kathleen.

To know Kathleen was to love Kathleen. She was a gentle soul who loved a good party. We remember her joy,kindness, sense of humor, and know that she is dancing the Irish Jig in heaven.
